    these were all found by a friend of mine who was demolishing a house in San Francisco. They were in a secret cupboard inside of a large built-in cupboard. There were a bunch of papers w/ them too - which i bought as well.

      do you think i should polish these up w/ some silver polish?
    2. filmnet filmnet, 9 years ago
      Marks please, they don't look sterling silver, anyway the salt shatter's were never made from S Silver I think.
    3. ho2cultcha ho2cultcha, 9 years ago
      filmnet: what is a salt shatter? the salt cellars are all marked sterling.
    4. ho2cultcha ho2cultcha, 9 years ago
      almost all of these are marked sterling. there are only three pieces which aren't. one is electroplate and the other is the one that baffles me here: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/158453-mystery-piece--european?in=user

      They are not so tarnished, beeing away from light and air, amazing!
      Please, no harsh polish nor silver dip. What I use is Hagerty Silversmiths' Silver Polish, with elbow grease and time ;-)

      What an awesome find:) I hope he took great care and patience dismantling the rest of the house. No telling what other treasures it was hiding.
